Ye Xi stared blankly at him, at a loss.
"Close." Qiao Jinglian lifted her lips and urged.
Ye Xi felt a little awkward, "Brother Lian, what are you doing?"
"Tsk, if I tell you to close your eyes, then close your eyes. Good girl!" Qiao Jinglian knocked on Ye Xi's head.
Ye Xi scratched his head, mumbled something, and unwillingly closed his eyes.
Seeing that Ye Xi had closed his eyes, Qiao Jinglian raised his eyebrows and opened the door.
Ye Xi's ears twitched, as if he could hear him entering the room.
Frowning, Ye Xi especially wanted to open his eyes to take a look, but he was afraid that if he did, he would make Yue Yang unhappy.
After a while, he didn't let her open her eyes.
Ye Xi anxiously pinched his fingertips, "Brother Lian, are you done yet?"
However, he did not answer her.
Ye Xi felt that it was a bit scary. In such a huge ancient castle, other than the sound of the wind and rain, there were no other sounds.
Ye Xi's eyeballs moved all over the place in panic, and he could feel a slight tremble in his voice, "Brother Lian, you, are you still there?"
"Xi Xi, Brother Lian is here, don't be afraid. Wait a little more for Brother Lian. " Qiao Jinglian's gentle voice was like a reassurance.
This made Ye Xi feel a lot more at ease, "Brother Lian, what exactly are you doing?"
He did not answer her again.
Ye Xi frowned, "Brother Lian ?"
"It's done."
Yes?
Ye Xi pursed his lips, "Can you open your eyes now?"
"Yes."
Ye Xi heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and slowly opened his eyes.
Because his eyes were still shut tight, his vision was still blurry when he opened them.
However, the room that was filled with fiery red light, suddenly filled Ye Xi's eye sockets.
Ye Xi rubbed his eyes and looked ahead.
When he saw the scenery in the room, Ye Xi couldn't help but hold his breath.
Within a luxurious and spacious room.
There were red rose candles everywhere. In the middle of the rose candles arranged neatly on both sides of the floor, there was a side of love built with rose candles.
The walls of the room were also burning with burning candles.
There was a window in this room.
A milky white piano was placed in front of the French windows.
On the piano, there was a row of rose candles.
On the white stool in front of the piano sat a graceful young master.
Following which, Ye Xi's gaze landed on the piano.
A gentle and elegant zither music slowly flowed out from the Young Master's slender white fingers.
The music was brisk, wanton, passionate, and affectionate.
Ye Xi did not understand piano, but he felt that the sound of the zither was extremely pleasant to listen to.
When it entered his ears, he felt as if he was in a sea of roses, making him happy and relaxed.
After the song ended, Ye Xi could not help but clap his hands and praise in his heart, "Brother Lian, you played really well!"
Qiao Jinglian proudly raised his eyebrows and did not say a word.
She stood up gracefully from the piano and walked towards Ye Xi.
The gentleman grabbed Ye Xi's small hand and brought her into the heart formed a sea of flowers that was surrounded by rose candles.
Ye Xi looked at where the two of them were standing. Just as she was about to raise her head, she saw that Qiao Jinglian was kneeling down on one knee in front of her.
Ye Xi was frightened as she stared at him in shock.
Qiao Jinglian stared at Ye Xi with sparkling eyes, holding Ye Xi's hand with one hand, the other hand slowly took out a red embroidered box from his suit's pocket, opened it with one hand, and handed it over to Ye Xi, then said with a deep love fist, "Xi Xi, marry me."
"?"
Ye Xi's back suddenly trembled, her eyes opened wide in shock and surprise. Staring at Qiao Jinglian, her pink lips moved helplessly.
"Xi Xi, marry me." Qiao Jinglian said again, his tone was sincere and serious.
staring at Ye Xi's eyes, which were filled with burning passion and deep emotions.
Ye Xi's heart was stuck in his throat.
Ye Zichen didn't dare to meet his eyes, and quickly took his hand and put it behind his back.
His sudden proposal made her at a loss, making her feel even more fearful and guilty.
Ye Xi retreated two steps back as he shook his head with red eyes, "I'm sorry Brother Lian, I ? I can't promise you that."
Her rejection.
It was as if a sharp blade was hovering over Qiao Jinglian's heart.
Qiao Jinglian's impeccable face sank as her phoenix eyes stared at Ye Xi's frightened little face, "Why?"
Ye Xi felt that it was not safe to stand in this heart-shaped circle.
She ran out of the circle in a panic. Looking at Qiao Jinglian who was barely enduring the anger and injuries, Ye Xi couldn't bear it anymore and closed her eyes. Her small white face forcefully smiled at him, "Brother Lian, it's your birthday today.
"Xi Xi, you know I'm not joking!"
Qiao Jinglian's gaze captivated Ye Xi deeply. Not giving Ye Xi the chance to escape, he said in a deep voice, "From the moment you agree to be my, Qiao Jinglian's, wife, you are destined to be my, Qiao Jinglian's, person!"
"Brother Lian, at that time, we were still young, so we shouldn't have believed what we said when we were young. In my heart, I have always treated you as my own brother, I ?"
"It's enough." Qiao Jinglian roared in anger, the red embroidered box was held tightly in his palm, his phoenix eyes burned with scarlet red anger as he looked at Ye Xi, "My blood brother, only a ghost would be your blood brother. Ye Xi, you better listen up. I, Qiao Jinglian, am going to be your man.
"Brother Lian ?"
"Alright, Xi Xi. Don't reject me by disobeying your own will. I know you have me in your heart. "You like me at dusk."
Qiao Jinglian suddenly softened his voice and walked towards Ye Xi.
Ye Xi's expression tensed up, he retreated, "Brother Lian, I admit that I like you, but that is really just my little sister's love for brother."
Qiao Jinglian took a step forward as a hint of intense pain flitted across his heart. Then, he quickly walked forward two steps and grabbed onto Ye Xi's wrist.
Carrying the candle, Ye Xi could not see his expression clearly.
However, the blood-like redness in his eyes was clearly visible to her.
Ye Xi struggled, twisting and turning his wrist, his voice trembling, "Brother Lian, let go, you're hurting me."
"I won't let go. In this life, I, Qiao Jinglian, will never let go of your hand!" Qiao Jinglian domineeringly wrapped her arms around Ye Xi's waist and pulled her thin body back into her bosom.
He lowered his head, phoenix eyes revealed sadness and anger as he stared at Ye Xi, "Xi Xi, I know that you have been hiding from me the entire time because of my grandfather. You have denied all feelings for me and rejected me. "But Xi Xi, do you really dare to say that deep in your heart, you just treat me as your brother and don't have any feelings for me?"
With every word Qiao Jinglian said, his long legs drew a step closer to Ye Xi.
While Ye Xi's upper body was thrown back, in order to avoid getting too close to him, she could only move backwards nonstop.
Until his back was pressed against a cold wall, Ye Xi had nowhere to retreat to, he was trapped between the wall and his embrace.
